India is dotted with places of religious interest. There are several towns that are referred to as
the temple towns owing to the grandeur of the temples they are home to. Especially South India is
more religious and traditional in following the customs and religious beliefs. The Vedas and puranas
state that their beliefs cannot be taken as superstitious beliefs, as many of the beliefs are highlighted
and exposed by Gods and Goddesses.
The temple is a place where God may be approached and where divine knowledge can be
discovered. The temple is designed to dissolve the boundaries between man and the divine. As a god can be
malevolent as well as benevolent it is important that the temple site is one that will please him.
The Puranas state that 'The gods always play where groves are near rivers, mountains and springs'.
Sacred sites in India therefore, are usually associated with water, shade and lakes of India are
often considered to be sacred and they have healing and purifying powers. Rivers such as the Ganges
are thought to have descended from the heavens, perhaps the Milky Way, and their sacred water is needed
in the temple tank.
Kalyanamalai has introduced the information on 'Thirumana Thiruthalangal' with the aim of creating
awareness on the importance of worship to temples fulfilling the wish of speedy wedding amidst people.

in God.
